Web services to turn on televisions
Posted by: Jack Vaughan
Word out of this year’s Consumer Electronic Show in Las Vegas is that Yahoo will be making a Widget Development Kit (WDK) available to developers on a limited basis. The kit helps developers create JavaScript- and XML-based applications that run on top of normal television pictures and are navigable via TV remote control. Yahoo made the announcement together with Samsung Electronics. The plan is to create a new Internet-based service to Samsung televisions starting in the spring of 2009.
